Weigh-in was 247.0, so that puts me at 35 lbs down total today...which is nice to keep in mind, since I've been feeling like I'm developing a rotating stall pattern lately. I feel like I will lose some weight, stay the same exact weight for a few days, lose a tiny more, stall for a few more days, and so on and so forth. I think I need to hit the gym more regularly to burn this weird cycling thing my body seems to have started. Hmm.

I slept in by a lot this morning, so my scale read a little lower than usual today...and, I'll take it! Weigh-in was 245.4 today, which is 1.6 lbs down from yesterday. Hopefully this is another mini whoosh. Does anyone else have bigger losses when they oversleep by a couple hours? Also, happy Cinco De Mayo everyone! I'm going to try avoiding delicious Mexican food today, lol. I might have a healthier version and make some more yummy chickpea tacos, though! We'll see.

Another good loss. This makes over a weeks worth of straight loss (8 days, 10 if you count last month). I have a feeling tomorrow may be a gain because I lost exactly a pound from yesterday to today, but we'll see.

I was feeling a little sick this morning, so my weigh-in is 243.2 today. Not the best way to get a lower number on the scale, but I will log it anyway. I'm looking at it like a silver lining to the dark cloud of feeling like crud...lol.

MoniqueMclean: Welcome to the thread!

erinmarie: I will admit that I'm having a better week this week, loss-wise, than I have for the past two...but, it's nice to hear someone else thinking I'm doing okay, especially when I've so recently felt like I was struggling! As for my "plan", it has basically just been calorie counting (staying under 1400 cals) and trying to get in some form of exercise for at least 30 mins a day, which has usually been yoga or pilates with the occasional walk/jog. I also sample some workout videos I find on YT from time to time. The only thing that's pretty new is that I recently started using the elliptical when I find myself at the gym, so that might be shaking things up a bit? All I know is that I'm going to be making an effort to do it at least twice a week from now on, lol. I also drink lots of water all day. (One thing to note is that my natural, intuitive way of eating lends itself to the 16/8 IF concept of eating only during an 8-hr window of time, with 16 hours to let your body process everything, so I loosely follow that now that I know it's an actual thing and not just my own personal appetite, lol.)
